The 2019 AAPEXedu program will include 10 sessions for automotive service professionals, auto parts retailers and warehouse distributors to help them prepare for the future, while also enhancing the service they provide to today’s customers. AAPEX represents the more than $1 trillion global automotive aftermarket industry and will take place Tuesday, Nov. 5, through Thursday, Nov. 7, at the Sands Expo in Las Vegas.
The content for this year’s AAPEXedu is based on the results of an AAPEX survey during which buyers were asked to identify topics of interest to them. For the first time this year, all sessions will be translated into Chinese and Spanish.
The sessions are part of a robust AAPEXedu program that also includes Let’s Tech presentations, and Mobility Garage: Products and Training for Tomorrow featuring underhood training and two sections – Shop Equipment and Technology and Electric Car and Alternative Fuel/Energy.
